Nothing much before I read FLB's testimonial, before that I had voted for Latheron. And yes, I was well aware of him before this vote was started. Should we make this the "Greatest Rovers Team that We have Seen" then? Remove Bob Crompton and stick Lucas Neill in. Any other of your mates you want voted in? Maybe Darren Peacock because he is "experienced"?

That's what everyone's doing, otherwise Brownie and FLB would not have been invited to produce testimonials. Or should we just pretend that football was invented in 1960? Wouldn't that be so, like, convenient?

Well, quite clearly, we don't know exactly what his qualities were, you have to judge things on balance of evidence available. But clearly you've already done that after a careful and considered analysis of both careers, judging by the derisory way in which you refer to a major figure in the history of Blackburn Rovers. Pathetic.

Kicking? Nah, probably just hit them over teh head with a Linux Box

Would you be happy for 3000 fans to ogle her jugs and jacky?

He might do if Hughesy was in the dock! "You have been convicted of teh grave offence of taking casual clothing seriously ..."

What makes you say that Hughesy?

Maybe the vote should be closed when we reach the same number of votes as we got in the first vote, ie 180?

Didn't Wham sing "Chant No1"? Or was it Spandau Ballet?

Maybe it's just a little deeper than you think. WE've already paid 2.5 mill for Pedersen, I doubt the fee will double if he plays 10 games. I'd imagine (and note I don't claim to know, or even have a shrewd "really I'm a bit of manager-on-the-sly" take on it) that Hughes is trying ot protect the guy's brittle confidence. Maybe he's waiting for us to be winning in a game, so he can give Pedersen some time on the pitch with no bad consequences?

Preview tape of Sky One's new program ... Tough Cops and Bent Slags Ruck It Out in Britain's Hardest Car Parks.

Who nicked them? Regan and Carter? I hope they had back-up! "Bosh! You're nicked slag, get yer trousers on!" I don't mean to demean the weight of any crime that has been committed, but the reportage of this incident ... you'd have thought that Bin Laden had been spotted having a lard pastie in the Darwen End. Hysterical tabloids ... as ever.

Shouldn't be hard to get a volunteer then. She'll still have her fur coat and knickers on in April.

Does that mean all players after him are post-modern footballers?

Surely if you can't feel able to judge a player who you never saw play you also can't judge him in comparison to one you did? By the logic for only voting for what you've seen, that makes Richard Brown a better player than Crompton, George Doner better than Douglas, Ashley Ward better than Tommy Briggs and Darren Peacock better than Matt Woods.

"Sherwood or Forrest" -- haha, how inevitable! 11 Merry Men!

Don't think this argument could be resolved, since we don't know how things would've turned out with someone else at the helm. But as things stand, he was not professional enough off of the pitch, not from what I've heard anyway. And his *appalling* injury record does tend to bear that out. Yes, he is genuinely talented. But he hasn't made the most of those talents, and for that you can blame one person only - him!

Maybe new registrations should be suspended until the vote is over?

Are you serious? If true, that is a joke. Rovers can handle it and can surely liaise with the Police at more junior level. It's not as if they're not taking it seriously. Bewildering. We don't even know if there's been a crime yet.

I have absolutely no respect for Steve Bruce at all, I loathe the man. He winds me up. And that was before he shot his mouth off, and stoked things up. He was rabbiting on about Dugarry being kicked up the bum and how it could've ended his career blah blah blah last time.

Shearer only did that because of the barracking he got every game. "Every dog has its day" as he said. Pull the tiger's tail and he'll bite you. Doesn't mean he has ill-will towards the club.

Jay will suddenly get faster?

Well, he'd be able to if he had a decent VO2 max level!

Phil, we still have big probs, dont know where your confidence is coming from?
